It does say Very Off Topic hehehe

 The Olympics will be starting in under 2 weeks. And with the American and
 Australian swimming teams already throwing insults at each other, I thought
 it was time to teach everyone the Australian Nation Anthem. I might be
 wasting my time though, as the world will know it off by heart by the end
of
 the Olympics. You will hear it often enough. :-)

 Cheers

 ADVANCE AUSTRALIA FAIR
 Australians all let us rejoice
 For we are young and free,
 We've golden soil and wealth for toil;
 Our land is girt by sea;
 Our land abounds in nature's gifts
 Of beauty rich and rare,
 In history's page, let every stage,
 Advance Australia Fair.

 Beneath our radiant Southern Cross
We'll toil with hearts and hands;
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Renowned of all the lands;
For those who've come across the seas;
We've boundless plains to share:
With courage let us all combine
To Advance Australia Fair.
In joyful strains then let us sing,
Advance Australia Fair
